Sept. 20 AP) The serious business of the 1932 major league season ended today when the Chicago Cubs clinched the right to meet the New York Yankees In the wood's aeries. The first two games are to be played at the Yankee stadium, New York, Wednesday, September 28 and September 29. After a day of travel the teams will resume activity in Chicago for three games, October 1, 2 and -3 and then if necessary return to New York for the final games. October 5 and . The principal worry for the Yankees, who clinched the Ameri can league flag a week ago lies In the condition of Babe Ruth.. The great, man succumbed to a threatened appendicitis attack In Detroit September 7 and has not played since. He began light workouts in the stadium a few days ago and is expected to play in the series against Philadelphia beginning tomorrow. The Babe insist! he will be in first class shape before the series starts. Adiance estimates indicate that new world series records for attendance and receipts may be made. The Yankee stadium has been enlarged since the last series .there and will hold 69,948 fans, who wilhpay $234,000 if they fill It. Wrlgley field in Chicago holds about 52,000 and a sellout will brine in more than $200,000. The Tecord, set by the Yankees and Cardinal in 1926 is 328,051 at tendance and $1,207,864 receipts.

Effl J ffi 1 OW good are the cubs? What chance will they hare with the Yanks in the online world series? What effect will that drive down the stretch to the National League flag have on the team's morale and stamina? Are they burned out? i There you nave some questions ihat are being asked wherever the national game is played, discussed or thought about. And they are puzzlers. j The Cubs are good. There is no question about that, but there is also no denying tne xact tnat tne fierht to win was a long, arduous one, what with the Pirates and the Brooklyn Dodgers staging winning streaks that brought them at dif ferent times right up to the very heels of the nyine Cubs. The Yanks, while they were not far enough ahead to loaf, were free of. the strain and 'worry attendant upon a close race. They will enter the aeries ready and at the bp of their form. But then in a short series like this, pitching is probably the big gest factor. And the Cubs are well supplied with mound material. In addition three of their pitchers have had world series experience, which in itself is a powerful ad vantage. In Pat If alone the Cubs have a veteran with big series experience. Pat worked in the series against the Athletics in 1930 and to him may fall the honor of opening the series against the Yankees. Then there is Charley Root, good old vet of the staff. Back in 1927 Charley almost pitched the Cubs in to a oennant single-handed. He tuned in twentyslx victories that year, and while his fast eoe has lost some of its sip since then, he Is still one of the pitching mainstays. He too, along with M alone and Guy Bush, has had world series mound experience.' Sacking up these veterans will be the brilliant youngster Lon Warnecke. Lon -will be working in his first world series but the Cubs and the Chicago fans count on him to stop the batting rampages of the Yankees. Warnecke ranks pretty dose to the top in pitching In the National League this year and has accounted for more than twenty of the Bruin victories. Well, it wont be long now, Just about a week in fact, and we will have the answer to that question, "how good are the Cubs?" Caerricbt. tilt.

Scio Grid Team Is Working Out; Prospects . Fair SCIO, Sept. 20 Fall football practice has been under way at the Scio high school since Sep tember 12 under the direction of Pat Beal, coach. The prospects for a winning team are fair. The return of 10 lettermen and additional strength from entering freshmen will do much to aldr in having a more successful season than in 1931. This is the second year of foot ball here. Scio is preparing for its first game against Gervals September 30 on the local gridiron. CURT CURTIS Just as effectively whether they follow it all or sot Coaches have been puzzling things out ever since the changes were announced. For instance, what to do about receiving the klckoff? Coaches who hmwe preferred a flying wedge will have to use some thing different. O t Here 'tis football season, and a sweeping set of changes In the grid rules to try out To the officials the changes will mean a lot of things, in cluding a closer check on sev eral points such as linemen's use of the hands, and possible contact of ball carriers' knees or other portions of their bodies, with the ground. Spectators will also be con fronted with some puzzles in fol lowing the game. But they can take it or leave it, and "expert' ALGONAC, Mich., Sept 20 (AP) Gar Wood brought the world's speedboat record back to the United! States today by send ing his Miss America X catapult ing twice over a measured mile on the St Clair river here at an average speed of 124.91- statute miles an hour. The former record, 119.75 miles an hour, was made on Loch Lomond, Scotland. July 18 by Kay e Don, British speedboat pi lot, who tried unsuccessfully a fortnight ago to wrest the Harms worth trophy from Wood. Wood, after the record-breaking run, said Miss America's four 12-cylinder engines had not been wide open in today's effort and that he knew that the big, mahogany-hulled thunderbolt could go faster. "How much faster, I can't say," he said. "The motors were making 2,500 revolutions per minute. Their limit, with safety, is 2,700 R.P.M."

Can these men be hustled back into a wedge formation? They have IS yards' start on the kicking team, but would have to print baek to a polut Just la front of the received, reverse di rections, form their wedge and tart forward. Would they hare sufficient momentum to make any headway? On the other hand, wouldn't that even, If prac ticable, be a violation of the spirit of the new rule, which 1b to prevent the flying wedge? Well, suppose they try some thing else. Spread out In the required territory and take the first man who comes their way? Tea, and if they block him, see him get up again In time to make the tackle.

(Special) Uni versity of Oregon will open its 1932 football schedule Friday night against Pacific university. The game will be played here on Hayward field, under flood lights. Despite the inexperience of the Webfoot machine, and especially the backs. Prink Callison, new coach, hopes to put out one of the finest teams In Oregon's history. Callison, however, is going to be handicapped by the toughness of the schedule. Oregon, as no other team in the conference, plays three tough elevens In the first three weeks of the season. After the Pacific tilt, Oregon takes on Santa Clara, here, October 1. Then comes Washington in their traditional battle at Portland, Oct ober 8. The California Bruins meet the Webfoots, also In Portland. October 15. in the annual Shrine game. Plenty of Material Bat MoHtly Green A wealth of material is avail able, but it lacks experience. Be cause Oregon has no experienced center, Callison has been forced to shift Bernle Hughes, veteran guard, to the pivot post. That means that the Ducks will nave two new guards this fall, and on the showing of these guards will depend Oregon's chances in con ference competition. Aside from the guards, a veter an is available for every position. That Includes Captain Morgan and Nllsson at tackle; Bailey and Wit hard at end; Bowerman at quart er; Mlkulak at full, and Temple and Gee at half. To keep Hughes on his toes at center are Chase, 190-pound soph omore, and Gemlo. another 190 pound sophomore. Chuck Swanson 180-pound substitute center, aso Is back. Dutch Clark, 196. has the In side track for one guard position. Gardner Frye. 190, freshman tackle last year; Roy Gagnon, 200. freshman guard in -1931; Ted Glesecke, 185, another sophomore, and two reserves Bree Cuppolettl, 186, and Hunk Johnson, 180, make up the guard combinations. Salem Man Looms As Tackle Prospect Tackles include, besides Morgan and Nllsson, Alex Eagle, 220; Charles Bishop. 245, of Salem; Ross Smith, 190; George Bagley, S15; all sophomores, and "Spook" Pope, varsity reserve. The ends lack reserves as do the guards. Bailey, 180, and Wls hard, 185, are back. Others are Butch Morse. 190, of Portland; Bud Pozzo, 180. varsity fullback last year, and one or two others. Bill Bowerman, 178, two-year veteran, is back. His chief com petitors at quarterback are Ralph Terjeson, 185, sophomore, and Clarence Codding, 180, who was freshman guard in 1931. Mike Mikulak, 200, is back at fullback. Great things are expect ed of Mike. Howard Bobblt, 180, and Wally Laurence, 178, both enperienced, are his nnderftudles. The halfbacks include: Temple, Gee, George Pepelnjak, 165, Stan Kostka, 200. Aft Clarkson. 165. Bobby Parke, 160, Elmer Brown, 168, Paul Starr, 160, Earl Parker, 165, Powell Lancaster, 180, trans fer from Ashland Normal, John ny Londahl, two - year veteran, who was not In school last year.
